Jeff Risdon of USA Today\u2019s Lions Wire played out two offseason scenarios, one where the Lions continue with their conservative approach of filling holes with modest roster moves, and another where they go after the \u201cbig splash\u201d move \u2014 All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Lions Land Myles Garrett With Big Package of Picks<\/h2>\n<p>Risdon noted that the Cleveland Browns likely want to hold onto their former NFL Defensive Player of the Year, even though he sought permission for a trade. Risdon predicted it would take a massive haul of picks from the Lions to make the deal attractive enough for the Browns.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile it\u2019s not likely the Browns have any interest in moving Garrett, and the financial and salary cap details make it next to impossible for Cleveland to even try to deal Garrett, here\u2019s what a Lions offseason could look like if Detroit and Cleveland somehow made it happen,\u201d Risdon wrote.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/library.sportingnews.com\/styles\/twitter_card_120x120\/s3\/2024-11\/USATSI_22172814.jpg?itok=PEiOFvFN\" alt=\"Lions blockbuster trade proposal lands $21 million superstar edge rusher for  picks | Sporting News\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Risdon predicted the Lions would send two first-round picks, one from 2025 and another from 2026, along with third-round picks from each of the next two drafts and defensive tackle Brodric Martin. In return they would land Garrett along with a fifth-round pick in 2025 and a second-round pick in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The Lions would likely some some fierce competition to land the Browns star. Garrett is at the peak of his game, making the Pro Bowl in each of the last five seasons and earning All-Pro honors in four of those years.<\/p>\n<p>Garrett could be a good fit for the Lions, who have struggled to establish a consistent pass rush outside of star Aidan Hutchinson. Even though Hutchinson suffered a season-ending leg fracture in October, no other player was able to top the 7.5 sacks he had to that point in the season.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns Expected to Hold Pat<\/h2>\n<p>As Risdon hinted, the Browns could opt to turn down the trade offers and continue to rebuild around Garrett. NFL insider Daniel Jeremiah revealed this week that other teams around the league see it the same way.<\/p>\n<p id=\"J2KTWF\">\u201cEverything in talking to people as of late around the league, the expectation is, \u2018No, they\u2019re not going to move him. He\u2019s not going to go anywhere.\u2019 We\u2019ll see what happens,\u201d Jeremiah said on a conference call, via SB Nation\u2019s Pride of Detroit.<\/p>\n<p id=\"xcilF6\">That likely won\u2019t deter the Lions from seeking a move, Jeremiah added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"0FEuBH\">\u201cDetroit has the roster that\u2019s ready to win right now, ready to win a championship. That could be a finishing piece,\u201d Jeremiah said. \u201cI would be willing to be pretty aggressive I think if I were Brad Holmes on that front knowing that that could bring a parade to my city. I would be aggressive and do whatever I had to do and try and make something like that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Detroit Lions could land Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett in a blockbuster trade, an analysts suggests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15141,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15140","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
